He served in the Aleutians on the isle of Shemya where he lived for 18 months without seeing the sun. Immediately after the war ended, he returned to Stapleton Nebraska and did graduate studies in physics at the University of Nebraska.

He became a member of the Stapleton Presbyterian Church in his teen years and was a life-long member of that denomination, serving various churches as an elder and a deacon.

He is mourned by his wife, Grace; sons, Charles, David, Lawrence, Edward and Richard; his daughter, Anne and one cousin, Alice Provost. He leaves behind 14 grandchildren, 6 1/2 great grandchildren, daughters-in-law, Deborah Lynch, Margaret Malec, Amy Treneer, Marsha Witt and Jennifer Seeds; and son-in-law, Denis Brady.
